In 1969 the Second Series of Jaguar E-Type was introduced with new body features like open head lights and rap around rear bumper. Also upgraded breaks added and power steering was now a option. In 1971 the last three years of a great legend came reality as Jaguar discontinued the E-Type in 1974. They still made big changes like adding a 5.2L V12 engine, standard power steering and updated breaks yet again. There was only two body type now the convertible and 2+2 coupe bringing a new front grill. In 1974 the sails had unfortunately drop by 15,000 so it was time for this magnificent car to rest once and for all. Good Night Jaguar E-Type.
